Prayer full waiting room
God's waiting room It's in these moments that God tests our commitment and strengthens our faith. During this waiting period, we are being prepared for the next stage of our journey. As we wait on the Lord, we grow in trust, learning to rely on Him more deeply..It is a state in one's life where they are faced with adversity, and they need to wait for a response from God. God desires that people are content with what they have during the waiting period as He prepares the best response to their requests. The waiting room is characterized by heavy reliance on faith, patience and trust that the requests will be answered in time. In other instances, the waiting room could be longer for others while shorter for others. However, it is important to exercise patience while letting faith work in the best way and time.

LIMITING THE HARM IN STROKE PATIENTS
Stroke is among the primary causes of severe disability and is among the leading causes of death in the world. There are two main types of strokes: hemorrhagic, where a blood vessel in the brain bursts, and ischemic, where a clot obstructs blood flow to the brain. The most crucial aspect of any stroke is ensuring that the patient receives prompt treatment. In cases where a major artery is blocked, over two million neurons die every minute, and once the tissue is damaged, it is irreversible. Individuals who could typically walk, dress themselves, and feed themselves may suddenly find themselves incapacitated by a stroke. Dr. Menor is the director of UCLA's innovative mobile stroke unit, which shaves off valuable minutes in providing assistance to patients. The unit is equipped with a doctor, paramedics, clinical nurse, telecommunication to stroke specialists at the hospital, a mobile lab, and a CT scan for accurate diagnosis. The goal is to transform stroke care systems by bringing the hospital to the patient instead of waiting for the patient to arrive at the hospital. On-site doctors can administer medication promptly to halt bleeding or dissolve a clot, while larger clots can be removed at the hospital using a minimally invasive catheter guided through an artery into the brain to extract the blockage. This can make a significant difference in a patient's quality of life, potentially allowing them to continue enjoying time with their family rather than being confined to a nursing home. It is crucial to recognize the symptoms of a stroke, with experts using the FAST method: looking for face drooping, arm weakness, and speech difficulties.
